Well, my tenure as a KOMU dot-commer has come to an end. I will always be there in spirit as I think back to the good times... Ashton yelling at reporters, Ashton yelling at the printers... actually, Ashton is a very tempered person, which surprises me. This may be stereotype, but I always thought Mormons were light-hearted, good-natured people. Huh.
Anyway, Cate was training a girl who will start in the summer, so it was really like a changing of the guard. Out with the old (Fowler and myself) and in with the new (Chrissie). It looked like she was skeptical because it's a lot to remember, but I thought the same thing when I started. Relax, Jen. Dot-com is in good hands.
This last one was very surprising. Scripts were approved around 8. On Friday. For the first time ever. It was a pleasant experience. And because scripts were approved early, we edited the stories earlier than before. Which meant getting them on-line was less stressful. And faster. Everything, video included (minus Sports) was up at 10:23. I know this because Cate was especially ecstatic about that fact, as it was the quickest anything has been uploaded.
Good shift, great semester, and I hugged Cate and Becca good-bye. I wish them well in all their endeavors.

FANTASY SPORTS NEWS
I'm leading this week in Baseball. Couple of people started hitting, including Ryan Howard. But it was a good outing by my pitchers, who should not go unmentioned. Carmona, Hudson, Looper and Burres pitched well in their outings. It should be more of the same over the summer. I might even keep this going for you Jen. I know you're concerned about my team.

OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
So I'm graduating... yeah.
Also, a buddy of mine is getting married in two weeks. That seems odd if I didn't have a couple of friends already married or engaged. I thought marriage was part of waiting for your career to start, not waiting for law school to start.
I'm growing weary of Eric Blumberg. Way to be a teacher and single me out in an e-mail for making an error. Not even major, just backseat reporting. I'm sorry I didn't know the kid had a no-hitter until he was gone because I missed the first inning and didn't get the specific details. Oh well. One more week.

LINE/LYRIC OF THE WEEK
Martin Scorcese finaly won an Oscar last year. Overdue if you ask me. 'Goodfellas' was better than 'Dances With Wolves'. Saying Costner is better is a slap in the face to the film industry. So here's something from the film that finally gave Martin some sleep.
"When you decide to become something, you can be it. That's what they don't tell you in church. When I was your age, they would say we could become cops or criminals. Today, what I'm saying to you, is this: When you're facing a loaded gun, what's the difference?"
